If a sequel were to be made, it's likely that the story would pick up where the first film left off. The ending of "Apocalypto" saw the protagonist, Jaguar Paw (played by Rudy Youngblood), escape from the Mayan city and begin a journey to find his family. A potential sequel could explore Jaguar Paw's further adventures as he navigates the post-apocalyptic Mesoamerican world.
